September
18 was a big day. Six of the birds followed the ultralight
plane to join their flock mates—all at one pen.
Chicks #602 and #606 did not want to follow the ultralight.
On September 20 they
changed their minds. They flew behind the ultralight and now
all 18 are finally together in one big flock. In just a few
weeks they will leave
on their
first migration!
